Abstract

Representing the smallest special library category, public law libraries serve the largest and most widely diversified constituency. They also have a convoluted developmental history that makes a simple definition impossible to determine. In this chapter, the authors define the public law library, review the history of law librarianship and public law library development, examine the field’s standing within librarianship, and reflect on future trends.
